Pokemon Adventure - Kanto

Chapter One

"Charizard vs. Electivire!"

7:29 AM

Ten. Nine. Eight.

"But we can't cross the river without pickles.."

Seven. Six. Five.

"Wumbology.."

Four. Three. Two.

"The study of Wumbo.."

One.

"SQUAWK!"

"Ah!"

BOOM.

A mass of burrito-rolled blankets lay on the floor, a young girl trapped inside. She poked her head out, glaring angrily at the Fearow alarm crock which had startled her out of bed. "Well, at least I'm awake.." She mumbled, blowing a piece of stray hair out of her face. Fifteen minutes later she was dressed in her usual clothing, which consisted of a purple tank top with a PokeBall logo and jeans. Her burnt sienna hair was now in a simple ponytail, back and out of her face.

After a series of goodbyes too strange and confusing to go into now, the thirteen-year-old girl was on her way to Professor Oak's laboratory. 'Hmm.. Which Pokemon will I choose?' She thought on her way there. 'They say Bulbasaur is good for beginners, but it looks so weird when it evolves.' She crossed the frog-like Pokemon off her mental list of starters. 'Sqirtle's cute, but after that incident with the Lapras and the Ice Beam, I'm not so sure a Water Type would be such a good idea.' She crossed the turtle Pokemon off her list as well. 'Well, I guess that leaves Charmander. Strong, cute.. Not to mention that the Master uses Charizard in almost all of his battles..' She smiled. 'Hey, I'm at the lab!' She realized when she saw the large white building at the top of the hill. 'This place still looks pretty new, considering the fact that it's over forty years old!' She ran up the hill to the front of the lab and, smiling, the young girl knocked on the door.

"Hello." The Professor opened the door. "You're Tizaria Wolfe, right?" The girl, Tizaria, simply nodded and followed him inside. "Well, have you decided on what Pokemon you want to start out with?" But just as soon as the girl was about to answer, a voice came from the other room.

"Hey, Gary!" A man with a Pikachu on his shoulder came running into the room. 'It's the Master!' Tizaria stared at the man, surprised.

"Oh, Hi." The Professor greeting the Master. "What are you doing here? I thought you had a match?"

"Yea, but the challenger was so easy that I had nothing to do the rest of the day." The Master turned to the girl as if he just realized she was there. "Hey. Are you a new trainer?"

"Y-Yes.." Tizaria, who is also called Tizzi, said nervously. "M-My name is Tizaria Wolfe.."

"So, what Pokemon were you going to choose?" Gary turned back to Tizaria.

"Charmander." She replied.

"Great." Gary smiled, handing Tizaria a PokeBall. "You'll need a PokeDex, too." He gave her a small red device with a screen and many buttons.

"You'd think they'd change the design of that thing by now!" The Master laughed, taking out a device identical to the one Tizaria was given, though it looked much older and worn out. "Pika Pika!" The yellow Pokemon agreed.

Tizaria, not knowing how to act when there was someone as famous as the Master there, simply gave a small "Thank-you." to Gary.

"Hey, how would you like to watch a battle?" The Master asked Tizaria. She just nodded slowly and followed him and the Professor to the back field.

"Okay Ash, let's go!"

Two PokeBalls were thrown, and out came a Charizard and an Electivire.

"You take the first move!" Gary yelled.

"Okay. Charizard, use Flamethrower!"

"Electivire, dodge and use Thunderpunch!"

Flamethrower hit one of the electric Pokemon's tails, but that didn't stop it from launching an electrified punch at the dragon.

"Smokescreen, Go!"

A black fog filled the arena so that neither Pokemon nor Trainer could see. "Now, fly up and use Seismic Toss!"

Charizard came flying from above, aiming straight at Gary's Pokemon.

"Electivire! Thunderbolt, Now!" A bright yellow bolt was sent out at Charizard, but the dragon Pokemon dodged and grabbed Electivire.

"Gr.." Gary watched as the 'Stray Pokemon' flew up in the sky holding his, before circling a few times and crashing straight into the ground.

"Pikachu!" The yellow mouse squealed happily at seeing the opponent knocked out.

Tizaria couldn't help but yell, "Wow! That was so cool!"

Ash laughed and said, "That's what happens when you train in the Charicific Valley!"

Tizaria, excited at seeing the battle, forgot about how shy she had been. "I'm going to train my Pokemon to be as strong as yours!" She smiled.

"Well, it was great to battle with you again Gary, but my Mom's cooking lunch!" Ash recalled Charizard to it's Pokeball and left, mumbling something about his mom's meatloaf.

"Electivire, return!" Gary held out his Pokeball. "So, Tizaria." He said, turning to her. "The nearest town is Viridian City. There you can train for a while before heading off to the first gym." The Pokemon Professor explained.

"Alright. Thank you again, Professor Oak!" Tizzi smiled before bowing slightly and running through the door and out of the lab. 'Today is when my Pokemon Journey starts!' She thought, running down the hill. 'I just hope I don't mess up!'
